Panasports or Minilites on a Super

mezzeta · #1 (**permalink**) 08-09-2003, 07:47 AM

Has anyone experience fitting a set of 15" x 5 1/2" Panasport UL
series or Minilite race wheels to a Super or Ti Super? If so what is the Ideal
or required offset?

Thanks, Bruce

bruce you need at least a 38 or 40mm offset on these cars. the car I sold to Tom had 14 by 6 panasports and a 38mm offset allowing a 205/60/14 assuming you cut-off the limit strap perches. Compomotive makes a nice repro of the original 15 by 5.5 Ti Super wheel which in Europe you could get easily. My only problem with these is that they are a bit heavy. I think someone in the UK also makes a version of these lighter and therefore more costly. Contact minilite about their available offsets.

I posted my thoughts here.

heck I'd consider the minilites on my giulietta ss. Can you get them in 15x5.5?
I have a set of HB's TZ wheels. They look real nice. just a little heavy

Bruce try www.minilite.co.uk I think they do have a 15 by 5.5. also try Bob Yarwood in Portland he is the Compomotive dealer I have gotten wheels from him and found him easy to deal with. I still have a set of 15 by 6 panasports 40mm offset that would look good on that SS as well! Fred.
